An Allsorts card

This is a card I made for the Chocolate Baroque Design Team using the new Texture Fragments stamp set .
Once more using my favourite square format, this time I used one of the essentials chipbaord frames with inchie inserts. I inked the framed with black soot Distress Ink. I then painted the tiles in three shades of acrylic paint - buttermilk, tangerine and fuschia. I stamped each tile in black Pefect Medium and embossed with black EP, then reinserted the tiles back into the frame. I then matted and layered with black, fuschia and orange corrugated card onto a black 6 x 6 card blank.
These stamps are great fun to play with. When I had finished this card I realised the colours made me think of licquorice allsorts!

  2. This is lovely Elaine. Great use of those stamps and the inchie frame. I would never have thought of using those colours together but they look great and I can see what you mean about the licquorice allsorts, lol!

    I bought those stamps this week but heaven knows when I'll get time to play with them :o(
